The URLs in the URL box will correspond with the “Current URLs” on the URLs screen (in Edit+) or the “Current URLs” under “Web Paths” if you’re in _admin mode.

You could ensure that you’ve only got one “Web URLs” configured for your site (URLs screen on your Site Asset) and then configure the web server to redirect non-www to www (or the other way around if that’s your preference) - if you’re planning on making the site accessible via https you’ll want to handle those redirects at webserver level as well or you’ll also see http:// and https:// appear in the analytics URL field.

With a single site URL it looks a lot cleaner and is a lot less confusing for editors:

There is something I don’t understand here. I’m plugging a Google Analytics View with a site. Where does that drop-down come into play? The google analytics view already has the details of what stats to pull off the selected google analytics view.

Please explain.

… no need for a drop down here … I’ve set the asset to fetch its data from a specific view, it should show what is in that view without filtering on hostname.

Is there a way to disregard that drop down menu and tell edit+ to just take the stats from the view without filtering? (we can do filtering at the view level in google analytics if we want to.
